Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) contributes significantly to global morbidity and mortality; It is a disease that affects an estimated 210 million people worldwide and is the third most common cause of death. COPD is identified by persistent airflow limitation and is associated with progressively worsening lung function, dyspnea, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), and impaired exercise capacity. Poor exercise capacity is a common finding of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Central cardiopulmonary factors, respiratory muscle dysfunction, gas exchange abnormalities, and skeletal muscle dysfunction all play a role in limiting exercise capacity The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation applied to different muscle groups (quadriceps femoris and gastrocnemius muscles) on exercise performance and quality of life in patients with stable COPD and compare it with standard treatment.

Participants

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

The gastrocnemius group

The patients in the first group (n=15) were given a pulmonary rehabilitation program and additionally 20 minutes of Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (Group 1) to the gastrocnemius muscle,

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Muscle strengthening with neuromuscular electrical stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

The effect of peripheral muscle strengthening training in addition to pulmonary rehabilitation in COPD patients on the patient's performance will be examined.

The quadriceps femoris group

The second group was given a pulmonary rehabilitation program and an additionally 20 minutes of neuromuscular electrical stimulation to the quadriceps femoris muscle (Group 2),

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Muscle strengthening with neuromuscular electrical stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

The effect of peripheral muscle strengthening training in addition to pulmonary rehabilitation in COPD patients on the patient's performance will be examined.

The control group

The third group, which was the control group, was given only a pulmonary rehabilitation program (Group 3).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Muscle strengthening with neuromuscular electrical stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

The effect of peripheral muscle strengthening training in addition to pulmonary rehabilitation in COPD patients on the patient's performance will be examined.
